Mockingjay--like the Hobbit series--would have been better as one film. But still, this first installment is not without merit and is certainly worth watching. This is a different war film than probably any previously released. This film is not about the military aspect of war but about the propaganda side of it; who will we gain the support of the people? Saying this, if you prefer action films, this movie is not for you. But if something such as the nature of a propaganda war interests you, you will find this film interesting. The most powerful and poignant aspect of this film is the use of Katniss as a mockingjay symbol. Her costume is just breathtaking, and it is fascinating to watch how and why she resonates so strongly with the common people.
